 Event mouse_scroll | |
| Fired when a mousewheel is scrolled in the terminal | |
| Returned Object 1 | The name of the event. |
| Returned Object 2 | The direction of the mouse-scroll (-1 = up, 1 = down). |
| Returned Object 3 | The X-coordinate of the scroll (in screen-characters). |
| Returned Object 4 | The Y-coordinate of the scroll (in screen-characters). |
Examples
 Example | |
| Print the direction and the co-ordinates of every mouse scroll we receive a mouse_scroll event for. | |
| Code |
while true do
_, dir, x, y = os.pullEvent("mouse_scroll")
print("mouse_scroll: " .. tostring(dir) .. ", " ..
"X: " .. tostring(x) .. ", " ..
"Y: " .. tostring(y))
end
|
| Output | The direction the mouse-wheel was scrolled in, followed by the X and Y position of the event. |
| Example | |
| A variable, i, keeps track of the relative value of the scroll: every time a mouse-scroll occurs, the code checks the direction, incrementing the variable by one for every scroll up and decrementing the variable by one for every scroll down. | |
| Code |
i = 0
while true do
term.clear()
_, dir, x, y = os.pullEvent("mouse_scroll")
if dir == -1 then
i = i + 1
elseif dir == 1 then
i = i - 1
end
term.setCursorPos(x, y)
term.write(i)
end
|
| Output | At the coordinates of the scroll, the counter value is printed. |
